“Then the righteous will answer
him, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw
you hungry and gave you food, or
thirsty and gave you something to
drink? 38And when was it that we
saw you a stranger and welcomed
you, or naked and gave you
clothing? 39And when was it that we
saw you sick or in prison and
visited you?’ 40And the king will
answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just
as you did it to one of the least of
these who are members of my
family, you did it to me.’”
–Matthew 25:37-40
Grace to you and peace in these
uncertain and unusual times. I
hope you are staying safe, staying
healthy, and able to enjoy this
summer weather we’ve been

picnic blankets have marked many
a summer day. Food is one way we
define our cultures and our
identities, and it’s one of the most
blatant ways of offering hospitality

During this social distancing period, when we are holding online worship,
flowers dedicated in memorial that are normally on the communion table in
the Sanctuary are displayed virtually at some point during the service. The
image, with dedication text, is also shared for the following week on our
website home page. Please take a peek and reflect on that spirit of love and respect with which it was
shared.
